Isn't is all so BEAUTIFUL and FUN? I am looking forward to getting my hands on these new lines and start creating! :)

But wait, I have more to share...Eeee! :)

I have a couple more projects I created for Greatest View too...This layout is my current favorite, because I love this face Olivia gives me, and I have been having so much fun with creating different ways to make border tags. With this layout, I created a strip of the same photo, mimicking a Photobooth effect, with different actions to each image saved.

I made this fun card for a friend, and I have to say, these cute little bags, are PERFECT for a gift card! LOVE it!

Thank you again to Gail, for having me as a Guest Designer this month with your AMAZING products! LOVE them!

Check out Greatest View Blog too...for even more inspiration all month long from all the other talented designers! :)

I've been super busy...you know that FUN kind of PRODUCTIVE busy that makes you smile from the inside out?!

I spent Memorial Weekend with my children in Utah...Hill Air Force Base, where Noelly is stationed for now. I am soooOOOOoooo proud of her! She's so grown up, it is scary to me sometimes...and makes me see all the things I may have forgotten to share with her along the way. I pray...and add in little snipits of experienced life wisdom when I can...and when she's open to hearing it too! Ha!

I LOVE seeing my girly in her uniform too! :)

We drove home Monday...and it is ALWAYS SUPER HARD for me to leave my kids EVER! My eyes leaked some...

On our ride home, I had to stop a couple of times for pictures...thankfully Fos and Olivia were up for this too!

I've always wanted to stop and take pictures of this cool graffiti wall in Utah.

Then...as we were rounding our way around Swan lake, and the rain clouds were ALL around us, with a little bit of the sun popping out to say hello, and give us a GORGEOUS colorful smile...again I had to STOP to capture it!

It seemed like I could reach right out and touch it! This is the closest I've ever been to a rainbow before. You can literally see where it enters the water and fades away! :)

I love the doilies that came with this kit, and they were the perfect touch for making a fun bow border along the bottom of the photograph. The stamps that came with this kit work great with the paint dauber as well. Love all the colors and how it all came together to compliment the photograph.

About the song and why I chose it...I'm a big fan of Lindsey Buckingham, and every time I hear this particular song, I think of Olivia and her sweet smile when she looks at me. Lately, she's going through a phase, where she doesn't want to pose for pictures as much as she use to. Well, on her 10th birthday, we were having so much fun decorating and making decorations for her party, that she turned to me and gave me that sweet smile of hers. When I heard of this challenge, I knew exactly what picture I wanted to use and what song to use with it.
